first_img The Bank of America group sued the OCC, accusing it of overstepping its authority by issuing trust licenses to cryptocurrency companies

The Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) filed a lawsuit against the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) in federal court on Friday, accusing it of exceeding its statutory authority when issuing national trust bank charters to cryptocurrency companies. The ICBA stated that the OCC is implementing "broad new powers not authorized by the National Bank Act," allowing these companies to enter the U.S. banking system without being subject to the same level of regulatory oversight as community banks, putting small banks at a "serious competitive disadvantage."The ICBA is one of the largest banking advocacy organizations in the United States, primarily representing small institutions. Last month, the organization strongly opposed the Digital Asset Market Structure Bill, which failed to advance in the U.S. Senate, arguing that its stablecoin provisions did not protect community banks from direct competition for deposit accounts. ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey stated that Congress did not establish the national trust charter to provide a "backdoor" for cryptocurrency companies seeking to enter the banking system with the credibility of a federal bank charter, as these companies do not bear the same obligations regarding capital, liquidity, regulation, and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance requirements. An OCC spokesperson responded to CoinDesk that the agency does not comment on ongoing litigation.Recently, the OCC has continued to issue trust charters to cryptocurrency companies, but these companies' business models differ from those of typical community banks and do not offer cash deposit accounts that require FDIC insurance. Approved institutions include cryptocurrency banks Protego and Erebor, as well as existing cryptocurrency firms like Coinbase, Circle, and Crypto.com.

Drift's compensation plan has caused dissatisfaction, with a loss of about 1 dollar for every 100 dollars

The perpetual contract protocol Drift (now Velocity) Foundation has opened claims and redemptions for the security incident on April 1. Affected users can claim newly issued compensation tokens DFX at a rate of 1 DFX for every $1 of verified loss. DFX is a Solana standard SPL asset, with a fixed total supply of approximately 299.5 million tokens, corresponding to about $295.4 million in verified losses, and no further issuance will occur.Users can destroy DFX on the official portal and redeem it for USDT at the redemption price, or trade it on secondary markets like Raydium. The redemption price is determined by the balance of the recovery pool divided by the number of DFX tokens that have not yet been destroyed. Currently, there are about 3.11 million USDT in the pool, with a redemption price of approximately $0.0104, allowing for about $1 back for every $100 lost, covering about 1% of the losses, which has caused dissatisfaction in the community, believing there is a significant gap from the expected full compensation.The plan also includes a maximum support commitment of $127.5 million from Tether, up to $20 million from partners, as well as subsequent sources such as transaction fee sharing from the new trading platform Velocity and the recovery of stolen funds, most of which are upper limits or installment arrangements, and were not included in the pool on the opening day. After the DFX launch, the redemption price remains around $0.0104, while the secondary market trading price has risen from about $0.01 to approximately $0.03, with a 24-hour increase of about 210%, and liquidity at that time was around $200,000. The tokens can be freely transferred, and the trading price does not have to equal the redemption price; buyers are mainly concerned with subsequent funding, protocol revenue, recovered funds, as well as the impact of early redemptions and the destruction of unclaimed portions after the window closes on January 1, 2028.
